Acts 15:7-11

7After there had beenG1096 muchG4183 1debateG2214, PeterG4074 stoodG450 up and saidG3004 to them, “BrethrenG435G80, you knowG1987 that 2in the earlyG744 daysG2250 3GodG2316 madeG1586 a choiceG1586 amongG1722 you, that by my mouthG4750 the GentilesG1484 would hearG191 the wordG3056 of 4the gospelG2098 and believeG4100. 8And GodG2316, 5whoG2589 knowsG2589 the heartG2589, testifiedG3140 to them 6givingG1325 them the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, justG2531 as He alsoG2532 did to us; 9and 7He madeG1252 noG3762 distinctionG1252 betweenG3342 us and them, 8cleansingG2511 their heartsG2588 by faithG4102. 10NowG3568 thereforeG3767 whyG5101 do you 9putG3985 GodG2316 to the testG3985 by placingG2007 upon the neckG5137 of the disciplesG3101 a yokeG2218 whichG3739 10neitherG3777 our fathersG3962 norG3777 we have beenG2480 ableG2480 to bearG941? 11But we believeG4100 that we are savedG4982 throughG1223 11the graceG5485 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, in the sameG3739 wayG5158 as they alsoG2548 are.”
